The North Pacific has a garbage patch, kids SIO researchers sample debris BY JULIE KINYOUN | VILLAGE NEWS
For 20 days this past August, a group of oceanography students from Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), accompanied by a public service organization, Project Kaisei, traveled through the North Pacific Ocean Gyre to sample plastic debris and garbage in the ocean. The Scripps Environmental Accumulation of Plastic Expedition (SEAPLEX) voyaged from southern California to the coastal waters of Hawaii and back to Newport Beach, Oregon. It took a first magnifying-glass look at the extent of plastic damage in the North Gyre. SIO director Tony Haymet
described the trip as “a forage into the great plastic garbage patch in the north” during a press conference held on Aug. 27, approximately one week after the expedition returned. The voyage on the research vessel New Horizon was led by SIO graduate student and scientist Miriam Goldstein, who initiated the trip with a funding grant she wrote to gain use of one of the revered SIO research ships. In summary of the research data collected on the ship Goldstein stated, “We did find debris… coming up in our nets in over 100 consecutive net tows over a distance of 1,700 miles… SEE GARBAGE, Page 10

La Jollan fastest man to swim Catalina Channel
Moxie conjures witches times at least three
BY ANTHONY GENTILE | VILLAGE NEWS BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS
La Jollan Todd Robinson swam his way into history on Aug. 25. Robinson set the men’s world record for swimming the 21-mile Catalina Channel. “It’s a long way to go and it’s longer than I’ve ever swum before, so I was pretty happy with the way we were able to push through and make it to the other side,” Robinson said. Robinson completed the swim in 8:05:44, starting a little after midnight in order to swim the calmest water possible. He said it was the first time he had swum long distance at night. “It was a surreal experience because your hand enters the water and you get the phosphorescence from the contact, so you’re kind of swimming in your own self-created light,” Robinson said. Going into the swim, Robinson said setting a record was in the back of his mind. But it was not something completely in his control. “I was pretty confident that I had done all the necessary train-

For the remainder of the swim, he batSEE CHANNEL, Page 3
Everybody loves Moxie, this season’s theater in residence at La Jolla Playhouse. They are beloved for many reasons, and topping most anyone’s list are pluck and determination. They — founders Jo Anne Glover, Liv Kellgren, Delicia Turner Sonnenberg and Jennifer Eve Thorn — are devoted to works by/for/about women and, in a creative factory dominated by men, that is a refreshing and marvelous thing. As Moxie champions the work of certain women playwrights, many just starting a career or at the least whose plays are under-produced, they give courage to feminine individuality, and yes, the moxie to continue playwriting their way despite the odds. A Moxie play usually gives audiences something to chew on, attitudes and points of view one seldom finds in more mainstream theaters. Looking back on Moxie’s four seasons, one finds some of the best, most

innovative and provocative work produced in San Diego; for instance, their recent staging of “Sugar Syndrome,” the inaugural “Kimberly Akimbo”; Liz Duffy Adams’ “Dog Act,” soon to be remounted at Moxie’s new, permanent venue, the Rolando Theatre; and Mary Fengar Gail’s hilarious “Devil
Dog Six,” produced in 2007 at 10th Avenue Theatre. For their Playhouse residency, Moxie chose another play by Gail. “Drink Me, or The Strange Case of Alice Times Three” is a fascinating, complicated exploration of the female psyche and historic fear of females’ occult power, mixed with serial murder and elements of “Alice in Wonderland.” Because the titular Alices speak Elizabethan English, the sensibility is Elizabethan even though costume designer Jennifer Brawn Gittings places us firmly in London, circa 1950. The piece is staged by Sonnenberg and Thorn with scenic design by David F. Weiner, lighting by Mia Bane Jacobs, sound by Rachel Le Vine, and wig and makeup design by Missy Bradstreet.

Surfers find body near Black’s Beach
Two cyclists injured in unrelated accidents
Two surfers discovered a body floating in the water at the south end of Black’s Beach on Monday, Aug. 31 at 7:45 a.m. The county’s Medical Examiner’s Office identified the body as 49-year-old Richard Mitchell, who lived alone in Hillcrest. Police found no indication of foul play, although the body did have postmortem bruises after floating in the water for an estimated 12 to 18 hours, according to Lt. Jerry Mills from the San Diego Police Department’s Northern Division. Mitchell was dressed in board shorts and a T-shirt.

tled through wind chop and swells that are common in open water. “Conditions weren’t great; they were so-so,” Robinson said. “But they weren’t so bad that it precluded me from being able to break the world record.” Robinson did not complete the world record swim from three miles off Catalina Island to Point Vicente in Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles on his own. He was joined by an escort kayak and boat to keep him on course and pace swimmers that took one-hour shifts to keep Robinson at his eventual 23-minute-mile pace. “I couldn’t have asked for better support from the crew on the boat, the kayakers and my pace swimmers that were just fantastic,” Robinson said. Every 15 minutes during the swim, Robinson would “feed,” which entailed swimming next to the escort kayak and drinking six ounces of a carbohydrate mixture to help maintain his energy levels. He also had a strategy to maintain his mental strength. “I tried to divide up the swim in my mind,” Robinson said. “The first four hours I was comfortable. My training swims were in excess of four hours, so I knew that I could keep a comfortable pace the first four hours, and that fifth hour was sort of a transitional hour.” Robinson did not suffer any injuries during the swim, but said that the repeated motion did a

number on his shoulders. “For me, my shoulders are the weak link in the chain of propulsion,” Robinson said. “It takes its toll after 60 strokes a minute for seven hours. The last hour, your arms have rotated quite a few times by then.” Robinson began training for the channel swim by swimming nearly every day, from May on, in La Jolla. During the week Robinson swam three to five miles per day, and on Saturdays he swam 10 to 15 miles. “That was all done in the La Jolla Cove — either over to the Scripps Pier and back for the 3-mile lap or over to the lifeguard towers at La Jolla Shores for a 2-mile roundtrip,” Robinson said. Robinson, who has lived in La Jolla for the past 14 years, had the help of a training team during his months of preparation. The team
consisted of members of the La Jolla Cove Swim Club and the UCSD Masters swim program. “They were really instrumental because none of them were really keen on swimming 15 miles by themselves, so they would stagger their start times so I almost always had company when I was swimming out in the ocean, which is a big morale booster,” Robinson said. Robinson said he had thought about doing the swim for a few years. Five years ago, he paddled on a kayak alongside a friend doing the swim. “Since then, it’s always been in the back of my mind, and this year it just worked out with my work schedule and the ability to devote some time and effort to training for the swim,” Robinson said. It worked out as well as he could have planned. ■

Mrs. Alessio was actively involved in many philanthropic organizations, including The Old Globe Theatre, San Diego Hospice and Palliative Care, St. Germain’s Children Charity, St. Madeleine Sophie Center, Camp Oliver and Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcala. She served as the 1988 chairwoman for the Mission’s Mission Patrons Dinner. Her dedication to health care in San Diego led to her long association with the Scripps Mercy Hospital Foundation. Mrs. Alessio served on the foundation board of directors for three terms: 1992-1998, 1998-2001 and 2002-2008. She was chair of the Mercy Hospital Foundation Board Development Committee from 1994 to 2001, leading major fund-raising activities to benefit the hospital. Linda and Frank helped fund the Mercy Cath Lab, the Mercy Clinic relocation, the Mercy Outreach Surgical Team
(MOST), the Palliative Care Program and the Campaign for Scripps Mercy Hospital Emergency Department. “For over 15 years, Linda served in leadership roles on the Foundation Board at Scripps Mercy Hospital,” said Mary Braunwarth, executive director of Mercy Hospital Foundation. “She was a thoughtful and generous supporter who cared greatly for her family and the San Diego community. Throughout Scripps Mercy, you can see the tangible impact that Linda, her husband Frank and the Alessio family have had on the hospital and the patients we serve. Linda’s legacy will live on at Mercy, but her gentle kindness will be greatly missed.” Other health care organizations were also the beneficiaries of Mrs. Alessio’s time and SEE ALESSIO, Page 4

Registration on for Girls on the Run fall season Registration is now open for the fall season of Girls on the Run, a 12-week running and character-building program for girls between the ages of 8 and 12. The fall season begins Sept. 14. The 75-minute workout and educational sessions will be offered at seven San Diego sites on a twice-weekly basis — including La Jolla/University City, Point Loma and Balboa Park. The classes are designed to prepare preteen girls for successful futures by helping them learn to set and achieve healthy goals. The program encourages exercise, nutritious eating habits and good decision-making skills. Part of a national organization of 160 chapters, Girls on the Run began its San Diego program in 2006. Since then it has helped more than 300 girls learn healthy patterns of success through organized non-competitive athletic participation. The sessions follow a progression of topics to foster self-esteem and healthy living. Each session has a specific focus — including learning to listen, body image, peer pressure, healthy decisions, contributing to the community, saying “no” to drugs and team building.
Locations for the fall sessions include: • La Jolla/ UTC, JCC, 4126 Executive Drive; Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4 to 5:15 p.m. • Balboa Park, Golden Hill Recreation Center; Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:30 to 5:45 p.m. • Point Loma, NTC Promenade; Mondays and Wednesdays from 4:15 to 5:30 p.m. For more information and registration, visit www.gotrsd.org.

GUEST EDITORIAL
Our public schools are crippling the economy BY PHILIPPE DAUMAN
merica’s public schools are failing. From the smallest towns to the biggest cities, our schools aren’t delivering the tools that young people need in today’s economy. Many kids simply aren’t finishing school. And too many who do graduate are unprepared for college and the working world. Comprehensive reform is needed. There are plenty of signs that there’s something wrong with the status quo. More than 7,000 students drop out every day — that’s about 1.2 million students each year. The national high school graduation rate, around 73 percent, is lower than it was 40 years ago. Students couldn’t be quitting school at a worse time. Technology is catapulting us forward. Jobs are increasingly complex. According to the federal government statistics, more than half of all new jobs in the next five years will require some college. Only about 30 percent of lowincome young Americans go on to earn any kind of degree or certificate after finishing high school. But simply reducing the dropout rate won’t make things better. Getting a high school diploma is no longer a guarantee that someone is ready for college. More than one third of America’s college students require remedial classes to learn what they should have learned in high school. Roughly 60 percent of students at community colleges have to take some remedial classes before they can pursue their degree. These extra courses cost taxpayers, students and parents about $2 billion annually. And businesses now spend substantial amounts of time and money teaching employees what they should have learned in school. To produce the next generation of workers, we must improve our schools. Lawmakers have the most
A
important role to play. They could start by looking at ways to change the way teachers are taught and recruited. They should also consider restructuring the teacher-student relationship. Perhaps students and teachers should stay together for multiple years. Raising state standards will also help. One idea that’s gaining traction is the creation of a uniform roadmap, from primary school to high school, so that once a student receives a diploma she would actually be able to continue on to college or smoothly transition into the workforce. Nonprofits, too, can improve educational outcomes. Over the last decade, for example, the Millennium Scholars program from the Gates Foundation has provided 12,000 scholarships to promising low-income students. The result? About eight in 10 students receiving these funds graduate from college within five years. The business community also has a role to play. Together with the Gates Foundation, Viacom has launched “Get Schooled,” a five-year initiative that creates a platform for corporate and community stakeholders to address the challenges facing the public education system. American businesses must also find innovative ways to encourage today’s students to succeed. We need to make a habit of communicating with government leaders and educators on a regular basis. We can — and should — offer insights into how the world economy is evolving. We can’t allow the nation’s students to be left behind. Our failure to produce a properly educated workforce today will cripple our ability to compete in the global arena tomorrow. The time to act is now.
These extra courses cost taxpayers, students and parents about $2 billion annually.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
‘Spamalot’ actors chew on the zany musical Matthew Greer plays Sir Lancelot in the hilarious stage adaptation of “Monty Python’s Spamalot” saga that has transitioned from film to stage. The show, a spoof of just about everything as we know it, is extremely irreverent. Harrison: What happened when you suddenly joined the show? Matthew Greer: I joined the tour about a year ago. When you come in as a replacement, you don’t get a whole lot of direction. It’s more like jumping on a train that’s going very fast and trying to be funny at the same time. The material sort of demands that kind of freedom. If Eric Idle or Mike Nichols comes to see it, they have different takes on it. It’s a juggling act. The material is such that anything can happen on stage. The sky is the limit as far as the zaniness goes. Hank Azaria originated the role of Sir Lancelot, and he is a very skilled improvisational actor. I have never had to do that before in my career as a classical actor! Harrison: Do you have to change your performance every night to fit in any improvisation and funny bits? Greer: It’s open and it’s my moment to come up with something. It’s more fun for the audience if they can tell there’s something new and unscheduled. The other actors are all waiting to see what I come up with, and then cringe in horror! The trick to doing
comedy is being willing to fail! Harrison: How did the very funny gay marriage bit go over in other places such as Kansas? It’s such a big issue in California. Greer: We were playing up in San Francisco and I asked if there was anything more we had to do about Prop 8. The line about gay marriage has been in the show since 2005. It continues to be controversial!
Gurr as King Arthur Actor Christopher Gurr has the zany role of King Arthur, which he took over from TV’s John O’Hurley. Christopher has spent a lot of time in and around theater in St. Louis and Chicago and has taught drama as well. He has played other roles in the show, but is now enjoying playing King Arthur. Harrison: There was a wide range of ages in the audiences, and they all seemed to laugh hysterically. Christopher Gurr: It’s one of the most diverse audiences I’ve ever played for in terms of age. One of the sweet spots for the show are 9year-old boys! It’s just silly enough for them to enjoy it with their dads. It’s like the dads are introducing them to the world of Python. There’s arrested development in practically everyone! Harrison: Is King Arthur strong enough with his merry men? Gurr: He tries to be in charge of his troops, but in fact he is not in charge of his troops. Arthur is sort of a comedic punching bag, and
that’s good. Every comedy is based on knocking the pins out from under somebody in authority. Arthur believes he’s doing the best he can, but they tell me otherwise, repeatedly!
Dandridge as Guinevere The beautiful Merle Dandridge plays the Lady in the Lake. Harrison: When you auditioned for the show, were you familiar with the part of Lady of the Lake or did you just say, here I am! Merle Dandridge: I auditioned several times. The first time was when they were first developing it. I don’t think they knew what the part was going to be. They wanted a lot of dancing, and I didn’t think I could be a real chorus girl. I went and did ‘Tarzan’ back in 2005, and then came back to this show after the part was formed.
Ben Davis as Sir Galahad and Merle Dandridge as the Lady of the Lake in “SpaPHOTO BY JOAN MARCUS malot,” Sept. 8-13 at the Civic Theater.
Harrison: Did Mike Nichols (husband of Diane Sawyer) ever direct you to say lines in a certain way to capture the comedy? Dandridge: I think there were a couple of things he was very specific about. But Mike is not that
kind of a director. It’s about telling the truth. Broadway/San Diego’s “Monty Python’s Spamalot” romps into the Civic Theater Sept. 8 through 13 downtown. For tickets, call (619) 570-1100 or (800) 982-2787. ■

growth, who invented three imaginary confidants named Alice during her disturbed childhood. When Lady Fossmire turned 12, she abandoned her playmates in the forest, fulfillment of the old adage about putting away childish things. Lady Fossmire’s son (Stephen Elton), whom everyone calls Foss, is a detective investigating the disappearance of London’s homeless men. Through an ad he places in the newspaper, he learns of the existence of Emmaline (Glover), Urseline (Morgan Trant) and Valentine (Melissa Fernandes) Rime, triplet witches who are systematically removing men, whom they first feed at their Victorian Belgrave mansion. All that remains after their disappearance are the men’s buttons, and indeed a button brought to Foss by the triplets’ mother (Laurie Lehmann-Gray) is the initial clue. Meanwhile, Foss falls for psychologist Flora Whetstone (Kristianne Kurner), who specializes in female neuroses. Mark C. Petrich portrays the triplets’ father and another detective. Confused yet? “Drink Me” is much more complicated than that, much darker, sexier and more strange, but the ideas — to anyone who’s studied feminist

history and cultural attitudes — are squarely and soundly based on Victorian and present-day thinking about the “weaker” sex, stratified society, the defense of elitism, over-population, homelessness and society’s role in feeding, or not, the homeless and the disadvantaged. There are some devastatingly funny lines. Interestingly, though Foss represents reason and sanity, he is not maligned, either by the others or in our concept of the playwright’s intent. He is the true north in this fraught evening, which is like taking all society’s attitudes plus the homeless men of Lon-
don, trying to fit them into one play and in the end stuffing them down the rabbit hole, and thereby hangs another tale. Historians, “Alice” devotees and cultural anthropologists will dig this play. So will actors because it is character-laden. “Drink Me, or The Strange Case of Alice Times Three” continues at 7 p.m. Thursdays through Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays through Sept. 27 at the Studio Forum Theatre, La Jolla Playhouse.

Art imitates life…
Text and photos by VINCENT ANDRUNAS
And life imitates art, imitation being the most sincere form of flattery. Last year, Fashion Careers College (FCC) teamed up with the Timken Museum of Art for an event titled “Art of Fashion,” and it was such a roaring success that they did it again this past Saturday evening. Patricia O’Connor (founder and CEO of FCC) chaired the event, and internationally-famed designer Zandra Rhodes (who splits her time between London and San Diego) was the honorary chair. The venue was Balboa Park’s Timken Museum — a beautiful palace of art, open to the public (with no admission charge). Despite the museum’s stunning art collection, architectural beauty and prime El Prado location, it’s been one of San Diego’s bestkept secrets for years — that is, until John Wilson took over as executive director this past September and began to put a more public face on this artistic gem. The event offered a rare fusion of fine art and fashion, matching the Timken’s world-class art collection with the talent and imag-
ination of the students and graduates of FCC. A baker’s dozen of designers participated. Each took inspiration from one of the museum’s paintings, and translated that stimulus into a striking costume design — not necessarily constrained by the practical limitations of wearability or commercial production. Models posed en tableaux with the designers and the paintings that inspired them, much to the delight of the admiring guests. La Jollans are rather wellinformed about cultural events, and being already aware of the secret delights of the Timken, many were in attendance. A substantial number of design students and their friends were also among the 300-plus event guests. Vaunted La Jolla eatery Tapenade catered the affair, serving a seemingly endless variety of delectable tray-passed hors d’oeuvres. Not limited to the confines of the museum’s edifice, the crowd also enjoyed the warm night air on the comfortable patio, while waiters served tasty desserts at the party’s end.

It is pretty shocking.” She pointed out how unusual it is to pull up the same thing over and over again in different parts of the ocean, and surmised that it must mean “there is a lot of plastic out there.” Summarizing their findings, she said, “[There is] not a big island, not a garbage dump [that we] can really see easily.” She described it more as a place where large debris floats by a ship only occasionally, but a lot of tiny pieces of plastic exist below the surface of the water. “Ocean pretty much looks like ocean,” she said. The plastic fragments are mostly less than a quarter inch long and are below the surface. The New Horizon vessel was equipped to take physical mea-
surements in the ocean, such as temperature and salinity levels, that will help the scientists examine ocean currents. They hope to correlate that data with what they learn about plastic in those areas. This type of subsurface sampling associated with plastic debris had previously never been done. “[We] have a lot of work to do before we are able to say anything about definite impact on marine life,” said Goldstein, adding that analysis of the data collected on the voyage will be a lot of work in the months ahead. However, with the variety of expertise and backgrounds of scientists on the ship, the data will be examined from many different scientific angles. Specific areas of analysis will include the following: toxicity, influence on ocean animal feeding, invasive species, changes in nutrient cycles, and alteration in food

webs. Focus will rest on the density, size and type of debris, with regards to these and other specific scientific research areas. One example of analysis includes that of the fish team, which will look at the intestines of the fish for plastic ingestion and analyze accordingly. The toxicologists will specifically examine the transfer of
toxic chemicals. “[We are] very fortunate to have a group of diverse interests working together on this project,” Goldstein said. Overall, they are concerned with how biogeochemical processes that are generally not well understood are affected by the presence of plastics in the ocean. Goldstein called the magnitude of the analysis “scary and complicated.” Doug Woodring, co-founder and project director for Project Kaisei, said that one of their follow-up activities for the expedition is to “help disseminate the findings to a broad audience, including policymakers, business/industry leaders, educators and the general public.” Project Kaisei aims to garner support for future activities related to possible climate and land-based prevention programs. Woodring described the partner-

ship with SIO as “an important step towards finding realistic solutions whereby Scripps can provide scientific results and Project Kaisei can provide outreach, inspire solutions and create new fund-raising opportunities.” Haymet spoke about future projects beyond the analysis of the North Gyre data. The group hopes to take an expedition to the South Gyre and collect more data. This expedition would require a larger boat, as the waters in the southern hemisphere are rougher. With partners, SIO plans to raise funds during 2010-2011 and gather enough scientists and equipment to execute a successful expedition south. Researchers predict that the plastic accumulation in the South Gyre is twice as much as that in the North. For more information, visit www.sio.ucsd,edu. ■

Painted greenlings full of surprises, bar none BY JUDITH GARFIELD
If there’s one fish that could rightly be described as criminally attractive, it would have to be the painted greenling (Oxylebius pictus), or if you prefer, convict fish. Since I have not seen its mug occupying wall space in the post office, the latter moniker must relate to the six wide, red-to-brown bars that encircle the body and fins, and not to a checkered past. The colorfully patterned critter is usually no more than 6 inches long, with females slightly longer than males. A pointed snout fronts a head region, which sprouts four flexible, branched appendages (cirri). At first glance, the cirri may be reminiscent of antlers but they
aren’t for head butting. They are chemoreceptors and function like taste buds. A network of nerves in the skin extends to and throughout the cirri, with the nerve ends left open. The circuit goes into action when sensory information reaches the nerve endings in the cirri. Information then travels to the skin to be transmitted to the skin cells. The sequence of events from here is not specifically known, but there must be a pathway from the skin that somehow connects to the central nervous system where the © 2009 JUDITH LEA GARFIELD

Volleyball specialist heads for Summer Deaflympics BY ANTHONY GENTILE | VILLAGE NEWS
On the beach volleyball courts in Taipei, Taiwan crowds will cheer, music will bump, whistles will be blown – and Mike Brüning won’t hear any of it. The legally deaf Mission Beach resident will be participating in the 21st Summer Deaflympics from Sept. 5 to 15. “We’ve all had the same key struggle in our lives and that struggle has been, in a hearing world, not having communication ties to a majority of the world,” Brüning said. “It is a very powerful opportunity to get the American deaf and the international deaf together. It’s a pretty amazing thing.” In the 2005 Deaflympics, Brüning and his partner took home the silver medal in beach volleyball in
Melbourne, Australia. Brüning will team up with Dimitri Nikiforov in Taipei and has his sights set on the top of the podium. “The opportunity that I have now is probably my greatest opportunity for a gold medal,” Brüning said. “I feel really confident.” Brüning was born with complete hearing but suffered a fever and left ear infection at the age of 2 that resulted in deafness in his left ear. His hearing loss was not fully discovered until the first grade, when his teacher could not get his attention one day in class. “I was drawing away and she was trying to get my attention,” Brüning said. “I wasn’t responding.”
The flashy red bars that blanket the male greenling broadcast his whereabouts to fecund females.
Stamp out idea of post office closing Miss Crankypants writes: “Last November the mayor of San Diego tried to close some branch libraries, including the cute little one on Governor Drive in University City. The residents of U.C. rallied to the library cause by writing their political leaders and bringing the media over to see some library-loving activists in front of the library. It was taken off the chopping block. A new youth services librarian was hired. Long overdue for a facelift, the library was painted and got new tile and carpet. “This August the Postmaster has named the cute little post office on Governor Drive as one of the ten to be possibly/probably closed in San Diego. ‘It’s déjà vu all over again,’ to quote Yogi
A View from Route 52 By Sandy Lippe Berra.” To answer Miss Crankypants’ concerns, we need only review why the University City library and post office were nominated by bureaucrats far removed from this tightly knit community. Somewhere in some cubicle in
some government building, someone is asked to find ways to save money for the government unless it has to do with Wall Street or war, cash rewards for clunkers, a boon for folks who haven’t shown good judgment. Honestly, if a government bureaucrat were to look at the layout of South University as compared to North University City, neither the library nor the post office would be considered when it comes to closing a facility. The beautiful, large North University City library is just like that shiny golden retriever puppy you received on Christmas on your 10th birthday. It is big and it is new. Who wouldn’t love to visit a new library? SEE POST OFFICE, Page 14

SD Music Awards will hit local high notes BY BART MENDOZA | VILLAGE NEWS
Mission Beach resident Mike Brüning, who heads to the 21st Summer DeaflyVILLAGE NEWS | StTAN LIU mpics from Sept. 5-15 in Taipei, Taiwan, dives for a ball.
For nearly two decades, the San Diego Music Awards (SDMA) has been the year’s highlight for San Diego musicians and their fans. Celebrating the wealth of talent that calls the area home, the event, produced by The San Diego Music Foundation, was first held in 1990. The purpose of the awards show is twofold. First, it puts the spotlight on local musicians, with 216 total nominees in 27 categories, encompassing everything from world music to hard
rock. Second, the SDMA awards raise money for the San Diego Music Foundation’s Taylor Guitars for Schools Program. To date, guitars have been presented to 59 schools around the county, effectively giving several generations of budding musicians their start. This year’s event, open to the public, takes place at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 10 at Viejas Concerts in the Park. Performers include Players Inc., featuring members of Slightly Stoopid; Scarlet Symphony; The Silent Comedy; Get Back Loretta; Steph
Johnson; The Burning of Rome and a Blues All Stars Jam. The high point of the night will likely come from this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award winners The Zeros. The reunited ’70s-era punk band remains hugely influential, particularly in Europe, where a DVD retrospective was recently issued. Chris Leyva, a Best Local Recording award nominee for his album “27,” notes that he uses awards night to blend business with pleasure. SEE AWARDS, Page 14

How often should my attorney review my trust?
Question:
The most important time to make estate planning changes are when major life events happen, which includes: births of children or grandchildren, deaths of someone named in your documents, marriages, change of names, receiving an inheritance and the addition of more assets.
Answer:
Even sophisticated clients forget to change their wills when they remarry. This would result in everyone being unhappy because a judge would have to be involved. Some clients inherit money or property and forget to add it to their trust, resulting in a probate. The other day I added 2 new children that were born to some clients several years before. If you want to leave money to new grandchildren, nieces or nephews, you must include them in the list unless you have given a gift to "all the grandchildren alive at the time of your death." The most common person that changes in your will is the guardian of minor children. This is the person that will be responsible for raising your child. The person you named as a God parent 10 years ago may not be the right person now. Please review your documents at least every 2 years yourself. I know you do not like to read them, but you can look at the people you have named very easily to determine if those need to be changed. Happy reading!

information is finally relayed to the brain and spinal column. That chemoreceptors are also found in greenling lips suggests that animals with added sensory capabilities evolved to better survive in water blessed with generally low visibility. I frequently see painted greenlings in the La Jolla Ecological Reserve posed amid the rocky substrate like an arranged still life. The resting posture has much to do with the fish’s lack of a swim bladder, an unnecessary accessory for a fish that lives on the bottom, mostly sits and is garbed in a mottled coat colormatched to the hues of its habitat. Painted greenling camouflage must be the best revenge against predators like octopi, crabs, larger fish and cormorants (the eel-like black birds, excellent deep divers, would be lucky to catch a greenling meal). During breeding season, the male changes colors in a kind of semaphore to signal specific messages across a distance. For example, he may turn very dark or almost black to warn other males away from his territory, and then morph bright red to flag down a female. In contrast, the female turns brown. Well, who has time to fiddle with colors when producing the next generation? During the breeding period, a female lays multiple clutches made up of tiny fluorescentorange orbs, such that, by season’s end, her grand total may top out at 28,000 eggs. Once the eggs are attached to substrate, such as the tube of a polychaete worm dwelling, the male fertilizes the clutch and perches nearby, vigilantly and aggressively guarding his brood until they hatch. He has no qualms about attacking other fish several times his size, much less divers myriad times his size. The painterly patterned greenling ranges widely, from Alaska to central Baja California. Active during daylight, it preys upon polychaete worms, crustaceans, small mollusks and bryozoans. Nighttime means sleep, and here is where things get weird. A painted greening may snuggle up to one of several species of anemone, and the anemone doesn’t mind. The symbiotic relationship between these strange bedfellows is called mutualism in which neither party is harmed. Because the greenling can and does live quite well without an anemone, the behavior appears to be learned, not innate. In studies, juvenile painted greenlings have been observed resting among an anemone’s

A painted greenling wears its taste buds atop its head (above). Called cirri, the specialized orange branches are chemoreceptors that allow the fish to recognize a good meal. Once bright-orange eggs are laid and spawned (below), the female departs while the male stays put, dili-
tentacles, and when chased, they retreat into the anemone’s mouth, popping out when the threat disappears. Adults greatly outsize the anemones so they sleep curled against the anemone’s base. Most anemone species that associate with slumbering greenlings are not found in the La Jolla Ecological Reserve or San Diego waters, for that matter. An exception is the strawberry anemone (Corynactis californica). I have yet to witness this behavior, possibly because these anemones are not abundant in the reserve. It can’t be emphasized enough how exceptional this relationship is because while mutualism is frequently seen in tropical species (like clownfish and anemones), it is rare in temperate species. The liaison between a painted greenling and anemone has not been well studied, an oversight I may need to personally rectify. ■

Kim and Dave Moore’s sprinkler system is broken and their grass is dying at their second home in La Jolla. They are not sure who to call from their primary residence on the East Coast. Before visiting La Jolla, they were also hoping to order new tile for the foyer, but forgot to measure the area. They would love to have it done in time for their arrival, but looking at samples, hiring a contractor from 2,400 miles away, and finding a neighbor to let him in and out seems like a risky proposition. They decide they will deal with it when they arrive, and spend weeks chasing around landscapers, tile installers, and some guy that was supposed to paint their shed but never showed. Their car is due for a smog check, the battery is dead, and the roof leaked the last time it rained and ruined a painting. “Just goes with owning a second home, and part of the fun,” Dave says. At least, that was his attitude until he discovered Home Alone Estate Care, a La Jolla-based company that now maintains their house, and all its upkeep needs, while they are away. “Home Alone Estate Care allows clients to avoid the hassle of becoming part-time contractors,” says owner Jeff Lhuillier. “We look after everything that requires maintenance, including landscaping, pools, housekeeping, pest control, deliveries, carpet cleaning...” Lhuillier explains “we meet with contractors during remodeling, serve as a local contact for emergencies, and tend to matters rapidly and responsibly in the homeowner’s absence. Assigned duties are customized to each client’s needs. While some desire to be greeted with specific food items in the pantry or fresh cut flowers, others enjoy a heated pool awaiting their return. We do it all.” The Moores discovered they didn’t have to be around to get things done, and now rest easy, no matter which home they are in. Home Alone Estate Care is a member of the Better Business Bureau, licensed and insured.

On the other hand, the University Community library on Governor is still cute and little, but it is more the faithful, aging dog than shiny puppy. Now picture what it would be like to youngsters and seniors, without a car, leaving the safety net of South U.C. to head north on
Genesee and east on Nobel to get to the library. For the experienced walkers and joggers, this route is not easy when you’re dodging speeding cars and maneuvering tough crosswalks. However, all a number-cruncher sees is that there are two libraries in the 92122 district. Close the old one, or to paraphrase the medical healthcare bill drawing angst and stress, take gramma off life support.
North University City cannot claim a big, beautiful new post office the way the North U.C. library can claim a big, beautiful book facility with tons of parking. The North U.C. post office looks like an afterthought in my mind. Wedged in the corner of a building housing a high-fashion sunglass store and other retail outlets, this post office promises parking from hell in Costa Verde. Besides having

the horrific hike up Genesee to get to the post office in Costa Verde across from UTC, an adult, child or senior would have to drive and experience the nightmare of parking, while in South U.C. people follow the dictates of the government by walking to the post office. If some folks drive, parking is easily available in the Marketplace Shopping Center, where Henry’s is the anchor store. Certainly the mayor of San Diego and the Postmaster cannot visit each community to feel the heartbeat, to learn about the neighborhood, to celebrate the family feeling familiar to the locals, but at least they should revisit their decisions after they hear from communities. South U.C. can thank Shelley Plumb, a woman who loves the cute little post office in South U.C., not just for herself but for the hundreds of seniors and children who go there. She has started a petition drive reminding people that although the snail mail has decreased, the closing of this post office would negatively impact the people in the community and make it a hardship for many. If you would like to sign Shelley’s petition, contact her at (858) 4535967. Perhaps some federal government bureaucrat could explain to
the citizens of South University City why the La Jolla Village Square post office isn’t suggested for closure. This tiny building, no bigger than a postal stamp, is hidden in the back of a retail center, hidden so far away that many people don’t know it exists. It has a 92037 ZIP code. Is that the reason the Postmaster hasn’t listed it among the 10 to be closed? Miss Crankypants relayed her hopes that the owners of The Marketplace on Governor Drive are rallying to the cause of keeping the post office in the shopping center. As it stands, the shopping center has lost so many businesses, beginning with the most popular pharmacy, U.C. Pharmacy, which left several years ago. Who would ever think the cute little post office could be victim to poor judgment on the part of the Postmaster and perhaps poor management on the part of the owners, but that is another story. Write a short letter to Tim Madden, Postmaster, 11251 Rancho Carmel Drive, San Diego, CA 92199-9998 and Dallas Keck, District Manager, at the same address.

Boys water polo teams dive into competition BY DAVE THOMAS | VILLAGE NEWS
Typically strong local water polo programs are just a given when the fall and winter seasons roll around. With the boys playing this fall, several area schools hope to surface with league and/or CIF gold. At The Bishop’s School, the Knights under head coach Jim Fales finished 26-5 last season, capturing the Western League and CIF titles in the process. Bishop’s
finished the 2008 season ranked number one in San Diego (all divisions). While the team graduated some strong talent, key players this season include seniors Emilio Marrero and Ollie Feune De Colombi; juniors Drew Hoffenberg, Matt Michalko, David Higginson, Adam Wrobel, Charlie Reed, JP Engh; and sophomores Blake Lee and Travis Webster. “With the loss of five starting
players (all Division I athletes), the 2009 team will have to rely on a relatively young group to compete for a league and CIF title,” Fales commented. “The team has been working very hard. They have a great tradition to uphold, and we are excited about the opportunity and look forward to the challenge.” At La Jolla Country Day (LJCD) School, the Torreys under head coach Steve Traverso enter the 2009 campaign with more experi-

Brüning was referred to a thenstart-up program at the University of Arizona designed to help deaf individuals. There it was discovered that Brüning needed a hearing aid in his left ear. Brüning said he still struggled in the classroom with the analog hearing aid and he didn’t know where to turn for support. “At that point,” Brüning said, “I wasn’t deaf, I didn’t really know any deaf people and I thought my struggles were my own. I used to function without [a hearing aid] because I was so embarrassed about it.” In 1989, when Brüning was 19, a gunshot fired near his head resulted in hearing loss in his right ear. This made Brüning legally deaf, as both of his ears now had 60-decibel loss, greater than the minimum requirement of 55 decibels. For Brüning, this incident necessitated the use of two hearing aids at all times. But Brüning said being forced to wear more powerful hearing aids was not a negative point in his life – it was actually the opposite. “Once I got these two new ones, all of a sudden I could hear normal conversations,” Brüning said. “I would miss random things, but my communication skills skyrocketed and my fears diminished because I was able to hear and communicate for the first time.” After the gunshot, Brüning finally came to terms with his hearing loss. Before becoming legally deaf, he grew his hair out to hide his hearing aids. “I cut my hair, exposed my hearing aids to the world and nobody ever changed how they treated me, I was just more involved and I could hear and communicate,” Brüning said. With the help of his hearing

aids, Brüning is not limited day to day. He has no trouble conversing in person or over the phone and said his hearing loss has resulted in him picking up subtle nuances in communication. “I’m really in tune to body language and lip reading,” Brüning said. “I pick up on stuff that a lot of people wouldn’t.” At his 70-decibel hearing loss, Brüning said the biggest benefit is being a part of both the deaf and hearing communities. He even feels sorry for those without hearing loss. “Actually I think I’m really fortunate – I’m the lucky one,” Brüning said. “You guys get to hear all that crap when you’re sleeping, you get to hear the really loud traffic, you get to be bothered by noises and sounds; I hear what I want to hear.” On the professional beach volleyball circuit, Brüning has had success this season, capturing an FIVB title in the Cayman Islands in
March. At an AVP event last month in Manhattan Beach, Brüning and his partner squared off against 2008 gold medalists Phil Dalhausser and Todd Rogers. “It was impressive to see them and play against them. I definitely was a little nervous,” Brüning said. “They have an advantage just because they affect people with their presence.” Competition at the Deaflympics will differ from Brüning’s appearances at professional tournaments and even his training sessions at the end of August on Mission Beach for one reason. Competitors in the Deaflympics are not allowed hearing aids so that no one player gains an advantage. “It’s a very silent game of volleyball, which is not what you would expect from the game. But the thing is we’ll have that disadvantage and the team across the net will have that disadvantage,” Brüning said. “That’s the purpose of the Deaflympics, because when I play against hearing teams, I’ll give up a couple points a game – I’ll just call it a deaf point.” At the Deaflympics, all of the points will be deaf points. But that won’t make them any less intense. “I can play through the whistle sometimes,” Brüning said. “I don’t hear the whistle, so I’m still going for the ball, whereas some players will think they heard a whistle or stop before the whistle was blown.” ■
ence under their belts. “With the loss of only two seniors from last year’s squad, the boys have gained valuable experience with its junior class,” Traverso noted. A year ago, the Torreys went to CIF playoffs and lost to La Jolla High in the first round. LJCD finished second in league play and hope to make a run for a league title this fall. Traverso expects big seasons
